Plants need nitrogen to survive. This is no mystery. This is fundamental science. The mystery has always been -- how do we get plants the nitrogen they need to survive and thrive?
The answer for centuries has been nitrogen fertilizers, and we know the issues these can create to our ecosystem. The good news is that there is a better option, and that is nitrogen-fixing microbes! Biological nitrogen fixation is a more economic, ecological, and a more profitable option than fertilizers.
How Nitrogen-Fixing Microbes Work
Nitrogen-fixing microbes, like Azospirillum, transform atmospheric nitrogen into a usable form for the plant. Using nitrogen-based fertilizers leads to nitrogen deficiency over time which stuns crop growth and health -- not to mention nitrogen runoff and the devastation these fertilizers do to our streams and waterways. Fortunately, this can be avoided entirely. These amazing microbes take the nitrogen in as a gas and release it into the soil as ammonia, which the plants can easily access.
Why This Matters
Nitrogen is required for chlorophyll molecules. Chlorophyll is important for photosynthesis, which is essential for glucose production for the plant's energy. This is a much better option for gardeners and traditional farmers than using nitrogen fertilizers. Naturally, we can achieve the same goal while establishing long-lasting health for the plant and overall soil biome.
